View 1 Repliesbasically i have a container which I am loading in swfs, when you click on a specific button I want the loaded swf to jump to a specific frame.
I am using actionscript 2 at the moment this is the code on my buttons...
on (release) {
container.loadMovie("lindy_black_swatch.swf");
}
My problem is :
A.swf : 5 frame (ie, page1, page2, page3, page4, page5)
B.swf : 2 frame (ie, page6, page7)
When click on back button in the page6(B.swf), wish to jump back to page5(A.swf) instead of page1 as normally
Script using :
back_btn.onRelease = function() {
loadMovie("A.swf",0);
};
B.swf jump to A.swf, but go to frame 5 instead of frame 1 in A.swf.
What should i do for the script to achieve what i mentioned above?
I have many buttons in a few movie files, i need to select a few of these buttons and store them in an array so i use....
var twocolourbuttons:Array = ["mybutton1", "mybutton23", "mybutton34"];
I then need to show a movie file if the button that has been clicked on is in the array. so something like...
if e.target.name is in the array show the movie twocolor.visible = true;
i then need to go to a certain frame of the movie, depending upon where the button is found in the array. So if the button is at position three of the array, i need to jump to keyframe 3 of my movie.
I just followed Lee Brimelow's 'Preloading in Actionscript 3.0' tut - it was easy to follow and implement. However, when I upload my files to my webserver to test, the .swf that I'm loading begins to play before the preloader completes. Actually, to be precise, the main swf has an audio file in the background that begins before the preloader completes. The stage of the main swf doesn't appear until the preloader completes. Prior to this, I was using a 'scenes' method of preloading, that didn't have this problem, but I kept running into a 1009 error, so thought I'd try a different method...
Here is the actionscript for my preloader:
Code: Select allvar l:Loader = new Loader();
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loop);
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done);
l.load(new URLRequest("CelebrateV4RPLY.swf"));

I have a main swf that loads 2 external swfs. I click on button to see content of external swf #1 and see stuff. I do something that causes external swf to show other stuff (i.e. not at beginning state)
In the main swf I click on button to see content of external swf #2. External swf #1 content is made invisible and I see content of external swf stuff. NOW, if I click on button to take me back to see external swf #1, I see it's content in current state. I want to force it to start over again at frame #1 which will reset content.
However, no matter what I try, I can't seem to control which frame to go to in external swf using gotoAndplay.

I want to jump to a specific frame in the swf I load using the Loader class. As it is now it goes directly to frame1 in the file, which I dont really want it to do. I'm using Flash CS4
View 2 RepliesI have been researching this for hours and cannot seem to find an answer anywhere. Right now I am linking one flash file or .swf file within my main flash site using a button.So in my main flash site, I connect to this .swf file by using...
on(release){
loadMovie ("MDsite2.swf", _level0);
}
This works perfect but the .swf file starts at the first frame. Is it possible to a jump to specific frame within that .swf file so it doesn't start on the first frame?
I have a problem regarding flash, actionscript3 and movieclips.
I have 2 videos(inserted as movieclips, each one in different frames 100 and 102). I want to gotoAndPlay the one on frame 102, but the other in frame 100 always starts at the same time. How do I play just the specific movieclip of frame 102?
P.S. If I order to reproduce the movieclip on 100, it starts as it should.

View 2 RepliesThis time, my goal is, I want to jump to a specific frame, when a button is clicked.
For example,
When I push button1, jump to frame 55,
When I push button2, jump to frame 65..
Buttons are designed in one frame, at the beginning, together...

In my project I have five video files that I need to all play simultaneously. I'd like the user to be unable to play them until they are fully loaded, because of course streaming would mean they wouldn't necessarily be playing at synchronized times any more.
So I need to load them all entirely, and have a single button that the user clicks to get them all to play simultaneously.
I have some buttons in my main movie.I want each button to link to a different frame of an external movie. Is this possible?

View 3 Repliesim trying to play a frame in an external .swf with a button from my main flash file.
View 5 RepliesLets say i had an animation and i also had four buttons. The animation would have 4 frame labels at different areas of the timeline. For example:
"Label 1" "Label 2" "Label 3" "Label 4"
now if i'm on the "Label 1" frame and i hit button 3. I'd like to have the animation play until it reaches "Label 3". Also if I were at "Label 4" and hit button 1, I would want it to play backwards to "Label 1" OR maybe it could either play through to the end and loop back depending on which way is closer.
I don't know if this is really possible. I know each labeled frame would require a stop() action, but i'm not sure how to make something play until it reaches a specified destination frame.
I am using the following actionscript to load a external swf. I would like to actually start playing that movie at a specific location based on what is already loaded. I am using this tutorial here. what I want but basically lets say I have three swf's. A, B, C.
If I go from A to B I use this AS
Code:
B_bt.onRelease = function() {
if (_root.currMovie == undefined) {

I am making an online portfolio and I have created the following scenes:homeaboutontactright now, I have three movie clips on the home screen that I have created into buttons.
on (press) {
go to Scene 2, frame 25 ?????????????????????
}
What I would like to do is after someone clicks on the button, it should then jump to another scene's specific frame number. So for example when you press the "about" button, the playhead goes to the "about" scene to 25th frame. Same thing for each button
I am making a simple application, 4 pages of information with the navigation buttons in a bar along the bottom of all four pages. (easy right!)
My problem is, i won't the information (pics,videos etc) to animate into each page when selected.
I can make them animate in by using the gotoAndPlay () method. BUT when i do this it just loops through all the remaining pages till the end.
gotoAndStop () doesn't play the animations, but the navigation works find.
I am doing a presentation in flash in movie languages I have 7 buttons when some body click button 1 it should go to a new movie called animate frame number 2 when some body click button 2 in movie language it should go to movie animate frame 6 if people click button 3 in language movie it should play movie animate frame 11 like that for all 7 buttons I have used the following code but its always going and stopping at frame number 1 in animate movie
Here is the code:
button 2
on (release) {
unloadMovie
loadMovieNum ("animate.swf", 6);
}
button 3
on (release) {
unloadMovie
loadMovieNum ("animate.swf", 11);
}
I have a movieclip that is comprised of multiple images.These images are used as the backdrops of various different pages of my portfolio.Every image is in a specific order, so if the user decides to go from page 1 to page 4, it will pan through the first three pages quickly before stopping on the 4th page. Simple Enough.The problem is I want them to be able to also do this while manipulating the timeline in reverse. So say if they're on page 4 and want to go back to page 2, it will 'rewind' the timeline and stop on page 2.know there are plenty of tutorials out on how to play a timeline in reverse, however none of which discuss stopping automatically when reaching a certain point that is before the beginning
